1998 Honda Civic

Defect. Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 1998 Acura 2.2CL, 1998-1999 Acura 2.3CL, 1998-1999 Acura 3.0CL, 2001 Acura 3.2CL and Acura MDX, 1998-2000 Honda Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Sedan, Odyssey and Acura 3.5RL, 1999-2000 Acura 3.2TL, 1996-2000 Civic Coupe, 1997-2000 CR-V, 1997-1998 EV Plus, and 1998-1999 Isuzu Oasis vehicles. These vehicles were equipped with Non-Azide Driver air bag Inflators (NADI) and do not contain phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant. Due to a manufacturing issue, the NADI inflators may absorb moisture, causing the inflators to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.

Risk. In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.

Remedy. Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the driver frontal air bag inflator, and replace it if necessary, with an inflator of a different design, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138 or Isuzu customer service at 1-800-255-6727.

WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO MAKE A HARD STOP. ON STOPPING THE VEHICLE BRAKES FAILED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL HIT THE FLOOR. VERY LUCKY THAT NO VEHICLE OR PEDESTRIAN WERE HIT. CAR WAS APPROXIMATELY TWO MILES FROM HOME. DROVE REMAINING DISTANCE AT 5 MPH WITH PARKING BRAKE ONLY. ON INSPECTION DISCOVERED THE TWO BRAKE LINES UNDER THE PROTECTIVE PLASTIC WERE CORRODED. IN ADDITION, THE THREE FUEL LINES ARE ALSO SEVERELY RUSTED, AND FUEL IS LEAKING FROM THE RETURN LINE. THE CORRODED BRAKE LINES ARE LINES 9 AND 11 IN THE 1998 HONDA CIVIC LX BRAKE DIAGRAM. LINE 11 IS CURRENTLY LEAKING LEAVING NO BRAKE PRESSURE FOR THE ENTIRE SYSTEM. THE FUEL LINES ARE PIPES 15, 16 AND 19 IN THE FUEL LINE DIAGRAM WITH FUEL LINE 19 LEAKING. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AWAITING TO BE SERVICED. BASED ON SEARCHES ONLINE FOR HONDA VEHICLES, THIS IS A FAIRLY COMMON OCCURRENCE ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WITH HIGH USAGE OF SALT SUCH AS THE MID-WEST. VEHICLE OWNERS NEED TO BE NOTIFIED OF THE DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY DEADLY SYMPTOM. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL OR NOTIFICATION FROM HONDA? IN ADDITION, THE REPAIR OF ALL OF THESE LINES IS VERY COSTLY TO THE OWNERS. *TR

MY CAR CUT OFF FOR NO REASON WHILE I WAS IN MOTION. I HAD JUST GOT A NEW DISTRIBUTOR. I NEED TO MAKE SURE MY VIN IS ON THE LIST SO I CAN GET MY IGNITION SWITCHED REPLACED. IT WAS A ISSUE WHEN I CALLED HONDA. HONDA SAID THAT MY CAR WAS NEVER FIXED PREVIOUS BUT THEY COULDN'T HELP ME. I WOULD APPRECIATE IT IF THIS MATTER CAN BE RESOLVED. *TR

1998 HONDA CIVIC. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE IGNITION SWITCH RECALL NOTICE. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED HE RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER IN THE MAIL REGARDING THE IGNITION SWITCH. HE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. LAST WEEK, AS HE WAS DRIVING AT A CONSIDERABLE SPEED, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY CUT OFF. IT STARTED UP AGAIN, BUT CUT OFF AGAIN, AFTER HE MOVED ABOUT 20 FEET. IT REPEATEDLY STALLED 15 MORE TIMES. A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER, HE EXPERIENCED ANOTHER EPISODE OF THE VEHICLE STALLING. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND EVEN BEFORE THEY INSPECTED THE VEHICLE, THE DEALER KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS; THE IGNITION SWITCH. THEIR EXAMINATION OF THE VEHICLE, CONFIRMED THEIR THEORY, THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REPLACE AT A COST OF $ 331.34. THE DEALER STATED THEY WERE AWARE OF THE RECALL, BUT THEY COULD NOT WAIVE THE COST, BECAUSE SO MUCH TIME HAD PASSED. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1998 HONDA CIVIC EX. THE CONTACT STATED THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS CAME OUT OF THE ROLLING TRACK CONSTANTLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO REMOVE THE DOOR PANEL IN ORDER TO PUT THE WINDOW BACK ON THE RAIL AND RESOLVE THE ISSUE EACH TIME THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SHE WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THE WINDOW.

DRIVING AT 55 MPH A FORD FOCUS PULLED STRAIGHT OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND CAME TO A STOP. I WAS APPROXIMATELY 1 CAR LENGTH AWAY WHEN THEY DID THIS SO I DID NOT HAVE TIME TO STOP AND COULD NOT PULL OUT AROUND THEM BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I T-BONED THIS VEHICLE DOING 55 MPH AND THEY WERE STOPPED. MY FRONT END HIT DIRECTLY ON THEIR FRONT DRIVERS SIDE. THEIR FRONT LEFT FENDER AND TIRE WERE BENT IN AND BOTH OF THEIR FRONT AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. MY WHOLE FRONT END WAS CRUSHED IN AND THE CENTER OF MY HOOD LOOKED LIKE I HIT A TREE. NONE OF MY AIR BAGS DEPLOYED. IF I HAD NOT BEEN WEARING MY SEAT BELT I WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE SERIOUSLY INJURED THAN I WAS. WHERE ARE THE SENSORS FOR AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT? SHOULDN'T MINE HAVE DEPLOYED? *TR

BOUGHT USED JUNE 2011 WITH ABOUT 169,000ISH, WAS ASSURED THAT EVERYTHING WAS CHECKED OUT. DROVE BACK HOME WITH NO PROBLEMS, AND THEN THE PROBLEMS BEGAN. WITHIN TWO MONTHS THE BATTERY DIED, HAD TO REPLACE. IN JAN OF 2012 CAR BEGAN TO OVERHEAT AND I NOTICED A 2" CRACK ON THE TOP OF THE RADIATOR, REPLACED. NOW TRANSMISSION HESITATES AND RPMS GO WAY UP WHEN SHIFTING INTO FOURTH GEAR. I DRAINED AND CHANGED THE FLUID WITH THE RECOMMENDED HONDA FLUID, AND NOW THE HIGH RPMS AND SLIPPING ARE OCCURRING IN ALL FORWARD GEARS. I FEEL LIKE A VOICE IN A FREAKING TORNADO WHEN IT COME TO ANY REASONABLE SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM. THIS HAS BEEN A MAJOR BLOW TO HONDA'S REPUTATION FOR ME. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY RECALL NEEDS TO BE TAKEN OUT. *TR

IN COMPLIANCE WITH NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 02V120000, A TECHNICIAN IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF AN AUTHORIZED DEALER REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH IN 2003. HOWEVER, DUE TO WORN CONTACTS, NOW THIS SWITCH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING AND THEREBY INCREASES THE RISK OF A COLLISION. *TR

THE SPEEDOMETER IS MISREADING BY STATING THAT THE VEHICLE IS GOING ABOUT 10 MILES FASTER THAN IT ACTUALLY IS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1998 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL SPORADICALLY AND WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 03V423000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: IGNITION: SWITCH) BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR FURTHER REPAIRS. THE FAILURE AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 258,000.

VEHICLE STALLS INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING, STOPPING, AND ACCELERATING. IT WILL RESTART AFTER A TIME PERIOD OR AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART. VEHICLE STALLED EXITING THE FREEWAY, APPROACHING A STOP, AND LEAVING AN INTERSECTION, MULTIPLE TIMES. HONDA REFUSED TO REPAIR THE IGNITION SWITCH EVEN THOUGH A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. REF HONDA RECALL ID #43534, NHTSA #02V120000 I WAS NOT CONTACTED BY HONDA FOR A REPAIR EVEN THOUGH I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER. A SEARCH OF THE INTERNET REVEALS HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR SAFETY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE IGNITION SWITCH FAILURE. I AM NOW FORCED TO REPAIR AT MY OWN COST. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1998 HONDA CIVIC. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE DISTRIBUTOR AND THE IGNITION CABLE. THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE MANUFACTURE WOULD NOT ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR BECAUSE THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 02V120000 ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: IGNITION: SWITCH. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 183,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

ON MAY 20, 2011, AROUND 5:45 -6:00 IN THE MORNING. I WAS TRAVELING SOUTH ON I-95 NEAR THE REST AREA IN GLYNN COUNTY JUST A LITTLE AFTER EXITS 42. IT APPEARED THAT I HAD RAN OVER A SEMI-TRUCK TIRE THAT WAS IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE. IT WAS LATER CONFIRM AFTER GETTING A LITTLE CLOSER TO THE REST AREA A SEMI-TRUCK WAS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD GETTING A TIRE REPLACE BY AN TOWING COMPANY. WHILE ON MY LUNCH BREAK I NOTICE THE LEFT DRIVERS OF MY VEHICLE HAD BEEN DAMAGE DUE THE OBJECT IN THE ROAD THIS MORNING. *TR

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR SERVICE AND THEY TOLD ME THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD WAS CRACKED. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS PART HAS CRACKED. I HAD IT REPLACED TWICE ALREADY AT THE DEALERSHIP- THEY DID NOT COVER THE PART UNDER WARRANTY AND I PAID $1000 EACH TIME TO HAVE IT REPLACED. I TRIED TO CONTACT AMERICAN HONDA AND THEY REFUSED TO COMPENSATE ME FOR IT. *TR
